I know one of the rangers up there who was going to go do it this morning so when he gets back I'll get the beta and post it. they still thought it would be fine, a little more difficult that in june but still passable.

at least we don't have a boardwalk where every eats the hot cock and WE have snow all year round to climb making our city one of the best recreation areas in the world BLOW ME!

we were planning on camping in the basin just below the lake to avoid a carry over or retracing our steps back to ingalls pass. Is it advisable to be on the rock at sunrise to avoid this epic that everyone refers to, and how is it finding the cascadian couloir? I've heard there is snow still in, it's hard to believe after it's been so friggin hot here on the west side of the mtns.

Any quotes on time to climb the west ridge from longs pass to the summit and back to longs pass (as though we were camping in ingalls basin)?
